My tips on how to save MORE money when meal prepping

Prepare your vegetables and marinate meats the night before. This will intensify the flavours and make the meat more tender.

Feel free to skip searing off your meats before placing them in your dish. It really doesn’t make much difference to the texture of the meat if you’re slow cooking. The same goes for onions. Just cut them smaller beforehand.

Greens are best added in the last 30 minutes of cooking, otherwise they tend to lose their colour and go very limp.

As soon as you have finished slow cooking a meal, portion it into small, airtight containers, and cool in the fridge. Once cool, place in freezer for a later date.

Have appropriate storage containers and label what you’ve prepared.

Results from mums using The Healthy Mummy Plans

1. Natalie

“I was piling on the lbs and my confidence was plummeting. I’ve never really been overly confident, so it really was rock bottom,” Natalie reveals.

“Then I joined the Healthy Mummy. I’ve totally changed the way I see food.”

Natalie says the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge has helped her make her favourite foods…in their healthiest possible forms.

“Now if I want something nice, I have something. I don’t feel the need to eat the unhealthy stuff I was before though, I choose something from the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge App“.

2. Anna

Anna is one inspiring woman. In just a few months (after joining the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge in January 2018), this amazing mama has lost 3-4 dress sizes, lost approx 3 stone and totally transformed her confidence.

“My greatest achievement thus far is getting comfortably into size 16 clothes after being a size 20 for what felt like forever! As well as beginning to fit into some of my size 14’s. This was something I thought would never happen!”
